Well worth the time. Newgrange is interesting, and Monasterboice is a place that most tourists probably never see.

Very nice drive up to Newgrange and Monasterboice. Highly recommend going there after you see Wicklow and Glendalaugh first.

The tour guide was very informative about Newgrange and Monasterboice. She shared lots of personal knowledge about the two areas. I was a bit disappointed in the fact that we were only allowed less than five minutes in the Newgrange. I would have liked to spend more time there.

The weather was the worst we had in Ireland so that didn't help. Newgrange was fantastic.

This was a great trip. It was fascinating and not too much ground to cover in a day. Newgrange was a wonderful experience. One thing that did cause some problems was that the voucher needed to be exchanged for a ticket, which was not advised anywhere, but eventually was sorted out.

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the countryside as we traveled from Newgrange and onto Monasterboice. She provided in-depth information on the two sites. The commentary was fascinating and it was a thrill to see the sites in such beautiful condition. Everything was done well.

This tour is well worth taking. The coach guide was excellent and Newgrange does not require endorsement. Everything was spoiled by the weather, it was a particularly bad day but nobody can be blamed for that.

I enjoyed the trip very much, but I would change a few things. It would have been nice to have more time at Newgrange. I felt a bit rushed, especially as that was a lunch stop as well. Also, the heating on the bus was very limited, especially given how rainy and cold that day was. The tour was informative and well run in all other respects.

Newgrange is really cool but that's about all I really have to say about this trip. Guides were good just not all that exciting of a trip. If you only have a short time would recommend other tours.
